It only says "it is a good idea", but doesn't say when exactly the

Mention the requirement at creatingpartition.xml or e2fsprogs.xml?

1) I have to ask the reader to mount the swap partition, because there
is no explicit "swapon" command in the book. Please fix this.

I'm not sure where this should be done. Is it sufficient to just
mention it in chapter02/mounting.xml? Maybe something like what's
below.
